We have been to Dan Nicholas Park in Salisbury, North Carolina more than once, and each time we go, we have a great time!

While there are lots of things for all ages to enjoy, it is especially perfect for younger kids who would enjoy a short little train ride…

I’m sorry, the teacher in me simply can not help myself. 😉

Dan Nicholas Park offers lots of other activities – like paddle boats and even a splash pad, but we have never made it over that way. They have several shelters (complete with grills, etc.), and I’ve heard there’s a concession stand with yummy milkshakes, too – but we have typically just spent the morning at the park and ventured toward home for lunch.

If you’re in the area, definitely stop off at this little gem of a park.

It’s an inexpensive family outing with lots of built-in learning opportunities.
